Registry Doc - How to remove

Registry Doc, also known as RegistryDoc, stands for a tool supposed to essentially boost up the system performance, get rid of junk data, fix registry issues, enhance the functionality of browsers and help people to access their documents in a more faster way. The first impression of the program is pretty positive when looking at its design and the described features only. Nevertheless, the software is clearly reported as a PUP (potentially unwanted program), which is confirmed by its detection by several anti-virus programs on VirusTotal.

The main reason why Registry Doc is classified as a PUP is that it is spread using various deceptive techniques. The users may install applications like Registry Doc without their direct intention. Furthermore, RegistryDoc works like a Trojan.Clicker, i.e. a malicious utility with the main purpose to cause click fraud. We recommend you to immediately remove Registry Doc and additionally examine your device to discover other threats that may be in place.

When the software developed for the purpose of click fraud activities is installed, it gets connected to several malicious websites and produce random clicks on several links and ads. The online frauds force people into installing applications like Registry Doc in order to use their devices for the purpose of generating revenue based on the PPC (pay-per-click) scheme.

Registry Doc also promises to enhance the system performance, repair your registry issues and perform other important optimization. The truth, however, is that all the troubles reported by this utility are most often fake, whereas the software does not fix any real troubles. The main intention of Registry Doc is to force the users into keeping this program active for as much time as possible so that they could obtain the revenue from the click frauds activities.
